The development of polymer-based structures is hindered due to the difficulties in realizing well-defined modulated structures with very small interlayer roughness out of charged polymers. We compare two types of heterostructures, one of them was prepared with embedded layers of polarized biomolecules. Using specular and off-specular neutron scattering, we observe,in the heterostruture containing the biomolecule, formation of ordered modulated structures with a drastic decrease in the roughness parameter. For the multilayer without the biomolecule we have indications of formation of island-like structures. Our study thus demonstrates that polarized biomolecules can interrupt the propagation of island-like structures at such interfaces which can be effectively used in achieving well defined supramolecular layer structures out of charged polymers.
